May 8, 1952. Description from National Archives: "Gen Matthew B. Ridgway, Gen Mark Clark, Maj Gen Howard M. Turner (USAF) and V Adm Charles T. Joy stand by parked copter in field. In front of them stands Capt Harriet Winkler and Col Ruby Bradley both of ANC. Voice from off-screen reads the citation awarding Winkler the Bronze Star Medal (out). Ridgway awards the Medal and speaks to Winkler (sound inaudible, picture out). The officers congratulate Winkler. MLS, Ridgway re-enacts the Medal presentation and adds his ...personal tribute to you and all woman (of the armed services)..whose contributions.. are of incalculable importance.. (camera shake). Footage repeated in silent coverage. Clark chats with Winkler, other watch. Note: Photography, sound, very poor)."
